Santa's Lap

I like to visit Santa Claus

When Christmas time is near.

It's fun to climb up on his lap

And whisper in his ear.

He says, "My dear, have you been good?

Have you done what Mother said you should?

Do you brush your teeth and hair each day?

Are you kind to others when you play?

I listen to each question

And answer every one.

Although I am ashamed to say

I must say no to some.

But Santa never scares me;

He doesn't even scold.

He just says, "Try again, my dear,

You're a fine lad, I am told."

Gee, I like to visit Santa Claus

When Christmas time is near.

It's fun to climb up on his lap

And whisper in his ear...
